Most Residence Halls Close Saturday, May 12
On-campus students begin moving out of the residence halls next week as the end of the semester and final exams arrive.
As a result, there will be a higher level of vehicle and pedestrian traffic on campus during finals week.
Please exercise caution driving around campus due to the increased number of vehicles and pedestrians. University Housing anticipates a very high number of students checking out of their residence hall rooms and apartments beginning Wednesday, May 9, through Friday, May 11.
Please join us in congratulating our on-campus students on successfully completing the academic year and wishing them safe travels home for the summer.
For questions concerning Move-out, contact University Housing at 479-575-3951 or via e-mail at housing@uark.edu.
